2nd voyage of the summer, began with a trouble-free launch from Moor & Dock in Partheni (Leros) and a short sail to Lakki for the now usual provisioning.  

Next day a very windy (on the nose) upwind sail to Ikaria, entering the small port in major catabatic wind off the mountains.  Toured the island the next day, then the following morning an early departure for Mykonos - started the day with 30+ knots of wind, but calmed a bit to a fantastic fast sail to Mykonos (recording our highest-ever boat speed of 9.5 knots).  

Mykonos was nuclear with Meltemi wind and with no space in the marina we had to grab a private mooring buoy in Ornos bay for the night.  Next day after a morning tour of town, we moved the boat to a slightly more sheltered anchorage still in Ornos Bay.  

Change of crew (David Weir left and Lane and Olivier arrived, on Monday but didn’t go anywhere as we were pinned down by the near-gale force winds for 4 days.  After which the weather became totally calm and Kat and I motored our way to Leros via an overnight stop in a beautiful bay on the island of Donoussa.  

Spent the last night in Archangelos bay off the north of Leros before hauling out.
